- When an effective website search strategy and local search pages are built they support each other. Here in this listing you can see the website and the place page appear side by side. The fact that this page has 8 Google reviews and 44 demandforce reviews helps the place page to gain authority and supports position. A little asking and encouragement and all businesses can get several reviews on their pages.
- The number of Google Places pages doubled in 2011. A significant amount of pages are unclaimed and unverified. Two reasons you should claim and verify yours IMMEDIATELY:Allows your control of YOUR brand, YOUR information and the ACCURACYIf you don’t maybe someone else will . . . An unhappy employee?Okay three reasons . . . This is free stuff yet very powerful, why would you take the hour to get it done and do it well?
- Citations are where your NAP – Name address & phone number are cited in another blog or website. NAP supports position for local search pages.Reviews are written by clients or prospects write on your Google Place page (or other social platform) You should be there to monitor and respond to all reviews good & bad.
- Bing is gaining market share and really shouldn’t be ignored. Again . . . It’s an hour of your time, it’s free, and it adds to build brand and presence
- A clear advantage of Bing local over Google is the included web results for the company and lack of competitive ads on the place page. Clear downside is the lack of information on the page to help promote the business.

- Yahoo!, same story different platform. Sign up, claim your listing and fill it out. If you are looking to save time, this is where I would probably not bother. Personally the pages are busy and difficult to follow. Yahoo! Isn’t a huge competitor. However, having said all of that, it still build brand, social presence and inbound links to your website. So WHY NOT??
- LinkedIn is the most targeted business professional arena. It offers you the greatest opportunity to create valuable conversation with your clients and prospects that help to build your brand and your authority and ultimately drive leads and grow your business. It is a commitment, so if you start stay with it. It will take time and energy but could deliver large rewards. Make sure you have the support of your team members and your company. If everyone supports it it will have much greater success.
